LOL, Yeah, I changed mine to blue, but I cant remember how I got the plastic out, it was that long ago. Think I pryed it out with a screwdriver. Dont recall there being a threat of breaking the plastic either...

They are very easy to pop out, just get a small flat head screwdriver and pull down the plastic from one side.
Is that easy i even done it in the dark before, as i've changed mine like 4 times.

Probably as good a time as any to encourage ppl to disconnect your negative battery terminal whenever you want to work on anything electrical in your car for this reason - to avoid anything shorting out!
Sounds like you've blown a fuse though. Most likely it's one of the ones in the box to the right of your steering column. Just check them all out
